Safety Assessment of Transgenic Organisms: OECD Consensus Documents Vols. 1 and 2 Environment Directorate: The goal of OECD Biosafety Consensus Documents is to identify elements of scientific information used in the environmental safety/ risk assessment of transgenic organisms which are common to OECD member countries.  This is intended to encourage information sharing and prevent duplication of effort among countries. These two volumes brings together for the first time these Biosafety Consensus Documents in order for these documents to be distributed more widely and utilised more easily by intended users, such as applicants for commercialisation, regulators in national authorities and researchers. More information on OECD's work related to the biosafety of transgenic organisms is found at BioTrack Online (http://www.oecd.org/biotrack).
